In the recommendpackages table are stored package selections for reuse at a later moment. E.g. you may save a selection containing OpenOffice, Mozilla and Gimp for office usage. Now you can install these three packages with the selection and don't have to install each of them.
- name: name of your selection (e.g. office)
- package: the name of the package in the selection (e.g. openoffice.org)
- version: may be used later if we have to select between different versions of a package.
- priority: the priority of a package selects when to install the package among other packages in the whole installation process. Packages with lower numbers are installed earlier.
- params: special parameters for the package.
